Revisiting India's last tour of England

Vijay's solid batting

Murali VIjay's batting in the series showed his ability to deal with difficult situations. He began the tour in style by scoring his maiden overseas hundred in the first innings of the first test.

Although Rahane made a match-winning century at Lord's, Vijay's 95 in the second innings was equally impressive. Also, Vijay's batting was quite good in the other games of the series as well. A bit of support from his teammates would've altered the fate of the series for sure. The star opener was the only one from the Indian side to average over 40 in the series.
